Interface preferences

    The Interface preferences are used to fine-tune some bits and pieces of Audion's interface.

Display settings

    The Audion control, and most faces for Audion, contain two lines of text. With this preference you will be able to control the content of these two lines of text for each of Audion's three modes.

    Mode selector:
    Use this pull-down menu to choose the type of audio you wish to edit the display for.

    Display in line one:
    Pick what content, relevant to the mode selected above, that you would like displayed in line one.

    Display in line two:
    Pick what content, relevant to the mode selected above, that you would like displayed in line two.

    Scroll:
    If the information is too long to fit on a face, checking this box will scroll the information.

Keyboard control

    If you're a keyboard-holic (many swear it's faster!) you can configure exactly what keys you'd like to use to configure Audion's core functions.

    Configure key for:
    Inside this pop-up menu are the various Audion actions that can be controlled with the keyboard.

    Press desired key:
    After selecting the key you wish to configure above, simply press the key (or key combination) on your keyboard you wish to use to control that action.

    Note: Audion looks at 'key content', not 'key'. As such, Audion sees no difference between the number 'one' key above the alphanumeric keys, or the number 'one' key placed in the numeric keypad.

    Reset to defaults:
    If you made a mistake, or just want to start over again, click this button to reset the controls to the defaults.

Playlist columns

    If you think the playlist is a little cluttered -- there are a lot of columns in it, we admit -- here's your chance to turn off the columns that you don't find useful. A special treat for anal control freaks! =)

Playlist windows

    By default, Audion will close a playlist window if you click the close box.

    However, some people may prefer the close box to hide the playlist. If so, you can check that option here, and option-clicking the close box will do the opposite (close the playlist). Hidden playlists are accessible from the Window menu, and will have a diamond next to their names.
